I am aware this isn’t a fantastic painting but I wasn’t aiming to be fantastic with it. This is something personal for me I wanted to share. For the last several years, my family has taken a pretty direct hit by cancers. Close family members taken too soon and it’s left a lasting impression on me. Life after death is a thought I have frequently as a result and how our souls move on after our bodies have been worn down as much as they can be. Each “soul” depicted in this painting represents someone close to me I have lost.

My grandma is beginning to lose her battle to cancer currently. I haven’t been taking it very well. I needed to paint something.
